Was listening to Pine Top Smith tonight. The audios poor on some tracks but there is a wealth of music to get acquainted with there.

Great site Lar, thank you for the link. A lot of that early jazz is not too familiar to me besided Armstrong and Bix. I am often reminded of the film/documentary Crumb about the artist R. Crumb, an eccentric guy but he seemed to have an incredible collection of really early and obscure jazz records. I would love to just know some of the artists he had in his collection. I hope a lot of this music is documented in a national archive, would love to hear a lot of that early stuff.
Will be interesting to see how this site develops.
